「娘炮文化」的英譯挑戰

大家應該都注意到重大消息，也就是對岸政府的廣電新規定
（不知道就是沒在聽早安新聞啦！）

越口語化的內容往往越難翻譯成英文
以下幫大家整理一些美聯社（Associated Press）的表達法

堅決杜絕「娘炮」等畸形審美
Broadcasters must “resolutely put an end to sissy men and other abnormal esthetics,” the National Radio and TV Administration said, using an insulting slang term for effeminate men — “niang pao,” or literally, “girlie guns.”

堅決抵制炒作炫富享樂、緋聞隱私、負面熱點、低俗「網紅」、無底線審醜等泛娛樂化傾向。
Broadcasters should avoid promoting “vulgar internet celebrities” and admiration of wealth and celebrity, the regulator said.

大力弘揚中華優秀傳統文化、革命文化、社會主義先進文化。
Instead, programs should “vigorously promote excellent Chinese traditional culture, revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture.”

違背公序良俗、言行失德失範的人員堅決不用。
Broadcasters should avoid performers who “violate public order” or have “lost morality,” the regulator said.

不得播出明星子女參加的綜藝娛樂及真人秀節目。
Programs about the children of celebrities also are banned.

OK，其實還有更多，但我覺得這樣已經很多了

言論自由完勝慘慘公爵夫人

應該無乜人會唔記得Harry同Meghan呢兩公婆今年三月接受Oprah訪問呢單英國皇室鬧劇，話自己唔係响大婚典禮嗰日註冊、有皇室人員問個仔會係咩色、質疑係歧視所以個仔唔係王子、有自殺傾向但皇室唔比佢睇醫生之如此類，總之係慘絕人寰。

响訪問出街之後，鬧交界KOL Piers Morgan响當時佢仲係主播嘅《ITV》早晨皇牌節目Good Morning Britain嗰度直接批評Meghan大話連篇，結果Meghan本人同五萬七千幾人一齊向英國電訊監管機構Ofcom投訴，打破Ofcom成立十八年以黎投訴人數嘅紀錄。今日Ofcom正式公布投訴結果，簡單啲就用四個字講晒，「言論自由」。

"Consistent with freedom of expression, Mr Morgan was entitled to say he disbelieved the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's allegations and to hold and express strong views that rigorously challenged their account.
（响貫徹言論自由嘅原則下，Mr Morgan係有權表達對公爵同公爵夫人所講嘅不信任，同時亦有權激烈挑戰佢地嘅言論。）

"The [Ofcom broadcasting] code allows for individuals to express strongly held and robustly argued views, including those that are potentially harmful or highly offensive, and for broadcasters to include these in their programming.
（Ofcom嘅監管守則從來都容許個人，包括廣播機構嘅從業員，表達強而有力嘅論點，當中包括可能做成傷害或者攻擊性嘅言論。）

"The restriction of such views would, in our view, be an unwarranted and chilling restriction on freedom of expression both of the broadcaster and the audience."
（限制呢類觀點只會對廣播從業員或者觀眾嘅言論自由做成不必要嘅寒蟬效應。）

【10.20集結案】

//2019 年 10 月 20 日九龍遊行案，前民陣召集人陳皓桓、民主黨前主席何俊仁、社民連前立法會議員梁國雄等 7 人，被指煽惑他人參與未經批准集結、組織未經批准集結等。7 人早前承認控罪，法官胡雅文今（1 日）在區域法院判 7 人監禁 11 至 16 個月。除了黃浩銘，其餘被告的刑期與早前 8.18、8.31、10.1 未經批准集結案刑期同期執行。//

以下是文遠的感言：

【吳文遠 - 10.20九龍遊行案件感言】

這是一宗政治案件，所以我認為這篇陳詞適合放在政治脈絡下開展。

我們生活在急劇轉變及充滿挑戰的時代。基於政府所謂「安全」的理由，記者、報館、網台主持、學者、教師、學生、藝人、歌手、工會人、社運人、民意代表以及許多市民，都一一被迫沉默，以至逐個被拘捕、檢控、囚禁。

尤有甚者，「安全」的定義還在不斷挪移及擴大。昨日出版的一篇報紙文章、一次演講、一種主張、一個標語，今天都可能被視為對「安全」的威脅。

短短數年前那些通常被判罰款或社區服務令的行動，現在會被判監禁。這裡曾經存在和而不同及真誠辯論觀點的言論空間，但現在只剩下觸目驚心的紅線。

每天都帶來法規的重新演繹，每天都突破荒謬的下限。有他們的眼中，現在甚至連兒童繪本都成為了對「安全」的威脅。

問題無可避免地浮現：究竟這些法規是要保護誰的「安全」？是公民的自由，抑或是實際上已經非常有權力的人的權力？

我們追求怎樣的秩序？這些法規的設計，是為了所有公民能夠享有法治、自由、公平競爭及繁榮的機會嗎？還是旨在引領我們進入一個政府不受挑戰及不受限制的時代？

我們發現自身正處於一個這樣的時代，人們需要作出看似簡單卻極為困難的選擇——就如哈維爾所指——我們要活在真實中，還是要服從於謊言及荒謬？

在我追求的真實生活中，我們只是像《國王的新衣》中的小孩那樣呼喊：「喂，國王根本冇著衫喎！」

【Avery Ng: On October 20 Kowloon Rally】

This is a political case, so I think it is appropriate to frame my remarks within the political context of this matter.

We live in rapidly changing and challenging times. Journalists, newspaper publishers, broadcasters, academics, teachers, students, artists, singers, trade unionists, political activists, democratically elected representatives, and many other citizens are being silenced, arrested, prosecuted and imprisoned by the Hong Kong government for supposed reasons relating to “security”.

What’s more, the definition of this “security” is constantly shifting and expanding. A newspaper article published yesterday, a speech, an opinion, a slogan--even a gesture may be treated as a threat to security today.

Actions that would have previously and sometimes rightly merited community service or fines just a few short years ago, now lead to the possibility of jail. Where once there was the space to disagree agreeably and debate ideas honestly. Now there is intolerance.

Every day brings a new re-interpretation of the rules. Every day we reach a new level of absurdity. Even children’s cartoon books have now reached the status that they are seen by some as a threat to “security”.

The inevitable question arises: Whose security is being protected--the liberty of citizens? Or are these laws in fact protecting and securing the power of the already-powerful?

What kind of order are we seeking? Are these laws designed to uphold the rule of law, ensure freedom, a level playing field, and the chance of prosperity for all citizens? Or are they meant to usher in an era in which the government can rule unchallenged and unchecked?

In the times that we find ourselves in, one needs to make a choice that is at once simple yet immensely difficult. As Vaclav Havel writes: Do we live in the truth? Or conform to lies and absurdity?

In my pursuit to live in the truth, we are merely the kid who yelled “hey, the Emperor wears no clothes.”

If your target audience is millennials and Gen Zers, TikTok should be the social media platform you choose to promote yourself and your brand. With 800 million active users, TikTok has an unmatched reach and penetration in these demographics.

TikTok offers a goldmine of opportunities for marketers and influencers. However, one place that it fell short was live videos, which are offered by competitor platforms like Facebook, Twitch, and Instagram.

In 2019, TikTok launched their Live feature by which content creators can live stream their videos from the platform.

Live video streaming allows TikTokers to connect with their followers in real-time using comments. It can also help you monetize your account if your live stream audience sends you virtual “gifts.” The best part about live videos is that you can cover a lot of content through them since TikTok hasn’t yet restricted their duration.

In this article, we will walk you through the process of creating live streams. Along with that, we will also share tips and tricks that you can leverage to maximize the results of your live videos.

What Can You Do on YouNow?

Watch live videos, browse trending hash tags, categories and broadcasters
Broadcast live videos
Follow, chat and connect with other broadcasters/fans
Like and comment on videos
In-app purchases (Users can purchase gifts for other followers).
Many teens use the app to broadcast their talents for example dancing and singing are very popular broadcasts. In addition, teens use the app for advice and to ask questions, there’s even a #bored hashtag which is very popular among teens. Other strangely popular hashtags include #sleepingsquad where people broadcast themselves sleeping.

One of the things we noticed about the content posted by teens is that many of them broadcast from their bedrooms, we always recommend being careful about sharing personal information online.
